In your 18 years of hands-on experience spanning across different industries and countries, tell us about your most significant milestone.
“The most significant milestone in my career was the opening of C Mauritius, the first hotel of C Resorts brand.
The whole project was a great challenge.
I enjoyed every moment, the contribution to the project and creation of the concept but also the recruitment campaign part and training of the recruits.
Like many other people in the industry, the biggest challenge in my career has been the Covid 19 period and the transformation of C Mauritius hotel as a quarantine center.
This was a very challenging period where everybody had to think out of the box, be resilient and learn new ways to work and live.
Finally, the launching of the first C Kite Festival at C Mauritius was also a big highlight of my career and a great opportunity to discover and tackle a new market segment.”
Why hospitality?

Do you think you can work in hospitality till your retirement?
“The hospitality field is made of passionate people who work hard and play hard.
I do not think about retirement or changing field.”
In your opinion what are the five traits to succeed in hospitality.
“Passion, Consistency, Curiosity, Focus and ability to adapt.”
39 years old, General Manager at a luxury hotel in Maldives.
What's your secret? OR any tips to our young aspiring hotelier.
“Passion. Every day is different in the hospitality business, sometimes there are days with 25 hours, and you really need to be passionate.
There is a quote I love that summarizes it well ‘Choose a job you love, and you won't have to work a day in your life’.
If I have to give an advice, it would be to take one thing at a time and know where your priorities are.
The most important is to be well surrounded by passionate people who challenge you and make you better every day. My role is to keep this passion alive.
I try my best humbly, stay grounded and seek to understand rather than be understood.”
